Your Morning Fuel-Up. Breakfast Recipes.

Bored with your current breakfast choices? Feeling not so full after your slice of toast or bowl of oatmeal? Coffee just not filling you up? Switch it up with these recipes below.

1) Egg "Salad". Fried tomato definitely doesn't take the place of bacon with regards to taste, but give your arteries a break with 4 slices of tomato fried on low heat in olive oil, sprinkled with a little salt & pepper, basil, oregano, and/or parsley. Combine with 2 eggs, any style, with 1/2 an avocado. The avocado provides healthy fats and the eggs provide 6 grams of protein each, and both will help you feel fuller for longer.

2) Steel Cut Oats, Sweet. Cook steel cut oats according to package directions and stir in 2 tbsp coconut oil and 2 tsp dark chocolate chips in each cup of oats. The fibre in the oats will stick to your gut to keep you feel fuller for longer. The coconut oil is a healthy fat that can help you feel satiated and the dark chocolate will keep you satisfied.

3) Pudding for Breakfast. Combine 2 cups coconut or almond milk (you can even try cow's milk), 1/2 cup chia seeds, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tbsp coconut sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon. Place in fridge for at least 4 hrs or overnight and you'll find yourself with a protein- and fiber-rich delectable breakfast that has a similar consistency to pudding.

4) Fancy Hashbrowns. Substitute regular hashbrowns with sweet potato and/or parsnip hashbrowns. Cut sweet potatoes and/or parsnips into bite size pieces and boil. Next, you can freeze and store for a few months, or fry with a little salt & pepper, onion and garlic powder, and maybe a few herbs (try the staples - basil, oregano, and parsley). Pair this with an egg scramble combined with peppers, onions and mushrooms with some basil and/or oregano. Consider serving with some steamed or baked asparagus.

5) Toasted Mash-Up. Mash an avocado with about 1 tbsp of olive oil and spread on a piece of whole grain/rye/sourdough/pumpernickel toast. Sprinkle with salt & pepper. Consider topping with a tomato, cucumber, or sprouts. If you add a bit of lemon to your avocado mash, it'll stay green for a day or two.

6) The Healthy Way To Do Yogurt. Plain Greek yogurt (full fat is preferred) or Skyr + ½ cup berries.

7) A Hummus-dinger of a Sandwich. Whole grain/rye/sourdough/pumpernickel toast + hummus + sprouts + slices of avocado and/or tomato + red onion (can be a sandwich or served on a single slice of bread).

8) Protein Power Balls. Mix together 1 + 1/2 cups of unsweetened shredded coconut and 1/2 cup cocoa powder. Add in 1/4 cup melted coconut oil and 1/2 tbsp vanilla.

Guess what? These breakfast ideas can also serve as a snack or light lunch or dinner.
